They don't have ramen (or "noodles" as they are called) on this list? I would think ramen would be the top of the list.
When I was broke, but never on government assistance and didn't know about church charity kitchens that hand out food... ramen and Mac and cheese (that I made with water, yuck!) were at the top of my list. I lived on those. Now, 30 something years later, I discovered ramen again and it's pretty Ok. Different than it was 30 years ago! Boxed Mac and cheese though... still yuck.
Every one of you in this thread is crazy, I love Velveeta Shells and Cheese doctored up with milk, more cheese, jalapeños, ham etc. and I always have a variety of premium ramen from the Asian market. I was on the swim team and still swim a lot now so loading up on carbs and sodium is normal to me.
AND... you can dump other things into the mac-and-cheese or ramen like tuna, spam, vegetables, etc and stretch it out for more meals.
Cracking a couple eggs into chicken ramen with some bean sprouts and jalapeños was how I managed when I was broke. Complete meal with everything you need for about a buck... probably $2 now under the Biden regime. I couldn't tell you how much since I started raising my own chickens.
